We know, we know. It sounds counterintuitive to tell you to watch documentaries about mediation instead of, well, just meditating. But hear us out. We aren't the experts, but in starting anything, we have found it is helpful to read up (or watch up in this case) and learn from the experts. This list of documentaries is for those who are new to the practice (perhaps as you participate in The 12 Pursuits) or coming back to the practice after a long break. Honestly, even if you're a seasoned veteran to meditation (and if so, we truly applaud you), this list is for you. So without further ado, here are the meditation-focused documentaries we are watching this month. 

 

1. Headspace's Guide to Meditation

This 9 episode series takes a lighthearted and approachable look at the benefits of meditation. They cover tips, techniques, and provide guided meditations to get your practice started. They talk kindness, anger, anxiety, letting go, and more.

2. The Mind Explained: Mindfulness Episode

Looking for something a little shorter than a full-length feature? This one's for you.

They dive into how meditation impacts both your mind and your body and a bit of the chemistry behind it.
